-Use of existing popular technologies for traffic congestion detection and management has been explored by several researchers in recent times. However, most of the works either deal with congestion detection strategies or address the issue of congestion control through signal manipulation or other aids. To the best of our knowledge, no effort has been made so far to develop a comprehensive sys...

In order to ensure the wireless connectivity and seamless service to mobile users, the next generation network system will be an integration of multiple wireless access networks. In a heterogeneous wireless access system, bandwidth allocation becomes crucial for load balancing to avoid network congestion and improve system utilization efficiency. In this article, we propose a new dynamic bandwi...

In this paper, a novel GA and AHP based route optimization algorithm for MANETs (not used by packet technology till date) has been presented. It uses node selection and route determination as a design criterion in order to ensure the integrity of network services, traffic congestion and various other adverse conditions. The topologies of high speed networks have become sparser (not dense) due t...

During the last years, the Internet Application (Remote Flexible Control and Instrumentation, Telecontrol...) has retained the attention of Control researchers for modeling and studying the congestion control of TCP/IP (Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) networks. The controllers proposed in the literature such as RED (Random Early Detection) or PID (Proportional Integrate Derivative)...

This paper analyzes airport congestion when carriers are nonatomistic, showing how the results of the road-pricing literature are modi ̄ed when the economic agents causing congestion have market power. The analysis shows that when an airport is dominated by a monopolist, either discriminating or nondiscriminating, congestion is fully internalized, provided that a separability assumption on trave...

Active Congestion Control (ACC) uses Active Networking (AN) technology to make feedback congestion control more responsive to network congestion. Current endto-end feedback congestion control systems detect and relieve congestion only at endpoints. ACC includes programs in each data packet that tell routers how to react to congestion without incurring the round trip delay that reduces feedback’...
